Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method comprising: controlling, by one or more hardware processors, secondary digital content overlaid on primary digital content, the secondary digital content comprising a plurality of layers arranged in a simulated Z-space; receiving, by the one or more hardware processors, first gesture information that identifies a first gesture type among a plurality of predetermined gesture types; determining, by the one or more hardware processors, a first action associated with the first gesture type, the first action comprising at least one of translating one or more of the plurality of layers in an X-Y plane or scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space; and updating, by the one or more hardware processors, the secondary digital content based on the first action.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of predetermined gesture types include a gesture within a first region and a gesture within a second region.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein: when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the first region, the first action includes translating one or more of the plurality of layers in the X-Y plane; and when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the second region, the first action includes scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of predetermined gesture types further include a gesture extending between the first region and the second region.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first gesture information comprises information associated with a plurality of user gestures including: a first user gesture that triggers the first action; and a second user gesture that comprises one or more interactions associated with the first action.
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the one or more interactions comprise a least one of pushing, pulling, lifting, swiping, or grabbing a graphical element associated with the secondary digital content.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving, by the one or more hardware processors, second gesture information that identifies a second gesture type among the plurality of second gesture types; determining, by the one or more hardware processors, a second action associated with the second gesture type; and updating, by the one or more hardware processors, the secondary digital content based on the second action.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the second action comprises at least one of showing or hiding the secondary digital content.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the second action comprises selecting one or more applications among a plurality of applications to provide the secondary digital content.
10. A system comprising: a non-transitory memory; and one or more hardware processors that read instructions from the non-transitory memory that, when executed, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising: controlling secondary digital content overlaid on primary digital content, the secondary digital content comprising a plurality of layers arranged in a simulated Z-space; receiving first gesture information that identifies a first gesture type among a plurality of predetermined gesture types; determining a first action associated with the first gesture type, the first action comprising at least one of translating one or more of the plurality of layers in an X-Y plane or scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space; and updating the secondary digital content based on the first action.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of predetermined gesture types include a gesture within a first region and a gesture within a second region.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein: when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the first region, the first action includes translating one or more of the plurality of layers in the X-Y plane; and when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the second region, the first action includes scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the plurality of predetermined gesture types further include a gesture extending between the first region and the second region.
14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first gesture information comprises information associated with a plurality of user gestures including: a first user gesture that triggers the first action; and a second user gesture that comprises one or more interactions associated with the first action.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the one or more interactions comprise a least one of pushing, pulling, lifting, swiping, or grabbing a graphical element associated with the secondary digital content.
16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving second gesture information that identifies a second gesture type among the plurality of second gesture types; determining a second action associated with the second gesture type; and updating the secondary digital content based on the second action.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the second action comprises at least one of showing or hiding the secondary digital content.
18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the second action comprises selecting one or more applications among a plurality of applications to provide the secondary digital content.
19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising: controlling secondary digital content overlaid on primary digital content, the secondary digital content comprising a plurality of layers arranged in a simulated Z-space; receiving first gesture information that identifies a first gesture type among a plurality of predetermined gesture types; determining a first action associated with the first gesture type, the first action comprising at least one of translating one or more of the plurality of layers in an X-Y plane, scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space, or showing or hiding the secondary digital content; and updating the secondary digital content based on the first action.
20. The system of claim 19 , wherein the plurality of predetermined gesture types include a gesture within a first region, a gesture within a second region, and a gesture extending between the first region and the second region, and wherein: when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the first region, the first action includes translating one or more of the plurality of layers in the X-Y plane; when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture within the second region, the first action includes scrolling through the plurality of layers in the simulated Z-space; and when the first gesture type corresponds to the gesture extending between the first region and the second region, the first action includes showing or hiding the secondary digital content.
